Greetings, Warders,
Welcome to the patch v0.5, giving Hell Warders a whole new look. We have been working hard for these three months, listening to player's comment and trying to bring an entirely new feeling of the game, so we hope you guys will like it.
The most significant change in this patch is the removal of "Spirit Orb" system. We have replaced it with a resource management system. Players will now gain resources by picking up orbs dropped from monsters and use the accumulated resource to build towers.
We have also added a campaign mode which player will progress along to unlock more towers, perks, and the story. Currently, we have finished act 1 and drafted act 2, act 3 and the additional towers, which will be implemented in future patches. The act 1 will end with a boss fight, which is EPIC!! More bosses will be added in the future. As a result, the previous history of character progression has been wiped.
